I know you’re already looking for a Halloween costume. So I found this one for you: THOR GIRL.

I have some questions about Thor Girl:

1) I was going to ask “Is there any Marvel Universe where Thor Girl actually exists?” As it turns out, THERE ACTUALLY IS! So here’s my backup question: Why does Thor Girl exist?

2) Is there any superhero name in the world worse than “Thor Girl”? For example, is anyone named “Spider-Man Girl”? (By the way, Wm. Steven Humphrey is actually the secret identity of “Wm. Steven Humphrey Girl.”)

3) Is a hammer really the best choice for Thor Girl? After all, Thor Man already carries one. How about a nail gun or a leaf blower?

4) Here’s a riddle: What did Thor Girl (who has a speech impediment for the purposes of this joke) say after having sex with Thor Man? “Dude, I’m tho Thor, I can’t even take a pith!”

That concludes my questions.

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)

  1. To me it kinda like a crack from Marvel’s “Not Brand Echh” comic from the late 60’s featuring “The Mighty Sore”, but with fewer obscure pith-helmet references. Hat tip to Kirby?

  2. I have seen several of you in person, and can extrapolate what the rest of you dweebs look like. Please, for the love of god do NOT wear this. Thanks!

  3. You shoulda opened the package. Chances (99%) are that the costume looks NOTHING like it is depicted. Eg Hammer not included. Sigh.

  4. With tight budgets this year for Halloween and the rest of the Holiday season, we want to help your readers save some money. Here are some great prices for Halloween Costumes .
